Rumors had EBGames/GameStop opening pre-orders for the Playstation 3 and Nintendo’s Wii starting this week, but that is starting to look unlikely according to reports from GameStop’s sales conference in Dallas.

A reporter from the Dallas Morning News was invited to tour GameStop’s conference. According to GameStop representatives, the final decision on console pre-orders has not been made. President of GameStop, Steve Morgan, believes that the company learned a lesson from its experiences with the Xbox 360 last year. If the company does offer pre-orders, the lesson learned is “caution and optimism at the same time.”

Little hard information seemed to be available at the conference regarding Sony and Nintendo’s console launches. Microsoft was showing off its Zune portable, which will be available in GameStop stores this November. GameStop’s sales conference continues into Monday, so a pre-order announcement could theoretically still be made then, but right now it looks like gamers will have to wait.
